In a way, heat sink is a passive heat exchanger. Naturally, as is the case with any energy transmission, heat energy travels from a hot area to colder area. But with the aid of heat pumps, the heat from a cold surface can be absorbed and transferred to a warmer surface, making the warming the warmer surface hot. In…
